Facebook has said as many as 126 million American users may have seen content uploaded by Russia-based operatives over the last two years.
     The social networking site said about 80,000 posts were produced before and after the 2016 presidential election.
     Most of the posts focused on divisive social and political messages
     Facebook released the figures ahead of a Senate hearing where it - together with Twitter and Google - will detail Russia's impact on the popular sites.
     Russia has repeatedly denied allegations that it attempted to influence the last US presidential election, in which Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton.
     On Monday, Google also revealed that Russian trolls uploaded more than 1,000 videos on YouTube on 18 different channels, according to the Washington Post.
